cmake
________________________________________________________________________________

CMake is cross-platform free and open-source software for build automation,
testing, packaging and installation of software by using a compiler-independent
method. CMake is not a build system but rather it generates another system's
build files. It supports directory hierarchies and applications that depend on
multiple libraries. It is used in conjunction with native build environments
such as Make, Qt Creator, Ninja, Android Studio, Apple's Xcode, and Microsoft
Visual Studio. [0]

[002] Setup
________________________________________________________________________________

Cmake supports to output methods on Linux; 'GNU Makefiles' and 'Ninja' with the
former being the default value. These values are set via the CMAKE_GENERATOR
environment variable.

The distribution recommends this value be set to 'Ninja' as it offers a
performance improvement over make and works better with ccache. Set the
following environment variable in your .profile or shell runtime file.
